What does gravitational potentail energy mean?
Technically gravity is always working so it cannot be potential, I would say that if anything it is kinetic. The influence that gravity has on everything gives that object potential energy.
What is an example of gravitational potential?
An apple hanging from a tree has gravitational potential energy...anything which could fall to the ground has gravitational potential energy
Is anything that lifted off the ground has potential energy?
True. It has "potential energy", in that gravity could be used to convert that "potential" energy into actual kinetic energy.
Is a stretched sling shot kinetic energy?
Yes, anything that has a mass, and moves, has kinetic energy.Yes, anything that has a mass, and moves, has kinetic energy.Yes, anything that has a mass, and moves, has kinetic energy.Yes, anything that has a mass, and moves, has kinetic energy.
Does kinetic energy and elastic potential energy have anything in common?
Yes because in a catapult the potential energy in a stretched piece of elastic is transferred to a stone as kinetic energy. The potential energy came from the user who stretched the elastic

What does an angle with a measure of 120 degrees?
An angle with a measure of 120 degrees does nothing. It has no potential to do anything. It just is.An angle with a measure of 120 degrees does nothing. It has no potential to do anything.

What would be considered traditional clothing in Israel?
Anything modest and conservative.
Should rich countries do anything about this potential problem?
Ahhh . . . exactly what potential problem?
What sources does potential energy come from?
It could be anything with the potential to fall like you holding a stapler up has the potential to fall
How did the atomic bomb influence the development of early America?
It didn't influence anything as it did not exist then.
Did anything influence Deborah Sampson?
seven
Anything in an experiment that can influence the experiment?
Factor

Is light energy a type of kinetic energy or potential energy?
i think potential...but dont quote me or anything
Why total electronic energy is negative?
In the case of potential energy, what matters is the difference in potential energy. Any "absolute potential energy" is an arbitrary definition. If you define a certain reference height as "zero height" and therefore "zero potential energy", anything above that would have a positive potential energy (as compared to the reference height), anything lower would have a negative potential energy. In Astronomy, for conveniencen, two objects at an infinite distance are often defined as having zero potential energy - thus, by definition, anything closer by would have a negative potential energy.In the case of potential energy, what matters is the difference in potential energy.
